Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fastening device for releasably fixing accessories to a shelf of the kind defined in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a system, and a shelf equipped with such a fixing device.
  • the shelf accessories may be of different kinds, such as for instance shelf dividers, pushing devices, holders for information carriers, trays, etc.
  • the devices used to fasten the accessories to the shelves will preferably have some fundamental properties.
  • One important property is that it is possible to fasten the accessories at selected positions along the length of the shelving, so as to position the accessories in a chosen space relationship that is adapted to suit different packages and different quantities of goods.
  • the accessories should further be securely held to the shelf in order to avoid that they are inadvertently loosened or displaced from their intended positions.
  • Shelf dividers constitute an example of accessories where the mutual distance there between can be particularly important.
  • the shelf dividers often consist of partitioning walls which are fastened to the shelving such as to extend at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the shelving and to project outwardly perpendicularly therefrom.
  • the primary purpose of the shelf dividers is to separate different groups of goods from one another and to create order on the shelving. Particularly when a goods advancing means is placed between two shelf dividers, it is essential that the shelf dividers are not displaced towards one another, not even to the slightest extent, since the friction between goods and shelf dividers may then become so great as to prevent advancement of the goods.
  • the accessories will preferably also be held firmly, such as to ensure that they will not topple. In conjunction with this, it is highly important will be held firmly and that the fixing device will enable respective accessories to be readily fixed and removed.
  • a particularly desirable property is that it is possible to fix a number of accessories to the shelf and to release a number of accessories from the shelf readily by hand.
  • a system which allows several accessories to be fixed and released at the same time can be used, for instance, in setting up shelf dividers on a new shelf or in reorganizing the whole of the shelf or a larger part thereof.
  • the shelf dividers are first placed in roughly estimated positions along the shelf, with respect to the goods to be placed thereon.
  • the person responsible for setting up the shelf will normally start at one end of the shelf and work towards the other end thereof. When arriving at the other end of the shelf it may become apparent that there is not sufficient room on the shelf to place a last shelf divider.
  • All of the earlier placed shelf dividers must then be adjusted by displacing the same somewhat in either direction so as to provide space for the last shelf divider so as to fill out the earlier occurring free end of the shelf.
  • all dividers can be fixed simultaneously in their respective positions readily by hand. This will readily ensure that non of the dividers will topple or be displaced or loosened on their respective intended positions while fixating the dividers or when subsequenetly placing goods on the shelf.
  • the means for fixating the accessories will have an aesthetic appearance and will not be an unnecessary obstacle to placing or removing goods on and from a shelf or from adjacent shelving. It is also important that the accessory fixing means are of simple construction and can be produced and mounted at low cost.
  • the means for securely holding accessories to a shelf can be applied to existing shelves without requiring the shelves to be replaced or modified in some way.
  • This data-carrying strip comprisesd of an elongate profiled element fastened to the front edge of respective shelving such as to extend along the full length of a shelf or along several juxtaposed shelf sections.
  • This data-carrying strip includes a longitudinally extending transparent plastic pocket in which price labels can be placed side by side in front of the goods to which the information carried thereby relates.
  • mother profiles or holder profiles primarily in convenience stores.
  • the mother profiled sections are also comprised of an elongate profiled element which is fastened to the front edge of a shelf along its full length or along mutually juxtaposed sections thereof.
  • the mother profiles include an elongate engagement part to which separate plastic pockets for labels or other information-carrying holders, such as flag holders, can be fastened in selective positions along the front edge of the shelf.
  • the use of mother profiles provides greater flexibility and more possibilities for achieving an informative, striking and aesthetically attractive presentation of goods-related information.
  • WO2004/112549 describes a system for fastening accessories to a shelf.
  • the system includes an accessory which has a foot, and a channel element that has an outwardly open channel.
  • the channel element is comprised of extruded aluminium and is fastened along the front edge of a shelf.
  • a fixing device for instance in the form of an elongate leaf spring, is disposed in the channel. The fixing device can be adjusted between a fixing position in which the feet of respective accessories accommodated in the channel are fixed and a release position in which said feet are released through the medium of a manoeuvring device accessible from outside the channel.
  • WO2005/7025386 describes a similar system which comprises a channel element formed by extruded aluminium and having an outwardly open channel which is fastened to the front edge of a shelf for accommodating the feet of respective accessories.
  • An elongate fixing device that has an outwardly open and axially extending groove is provided in the channel and can be adjusted between an accessory fixing position and an accessory released position.
  • This system differs from the known system described above by virtue of the fact that the fixing device can be adjusted between its respective positions by manipulating one of the accessories accommodated in the channel element, among other things.
  • the design of the systems that include an outwardly open channel in which the feet or corresponding engagement parts of the accessories are accommodated ensures that the accessories will be held stably in their fixed positions and that the accessories will stand relatively firmly on the shelf even in the release mode of the system, so as to facilitate subsequent adjustment of the accessories. Fastening of the accessories in the channel element disposed on the front edge of the shelf also enables the systems to be formed in the absence of parts that project up from the shelving if so desired.
  • WO2001/78043 describes a mother profile or holder profile for securing, for instance, label holders on the front edge of shelving.
  • the mother profile is comprised of an elongate profiled element which is mounted on the front edge of a respective shelf.
  • the profiled element includes a rear mounting part for fixing the element to the shelf and a front securing part to which label holders and other accessories of a corresponding design can be releasably snapped into the profiled element at chosen positions along the element.
  • One object of the present invention is to provide a fixing device of the kind defined in the first paragraph of this description, wherein the fixing device has a simple and reliable construction and is simple and inexpensive to manufacture, mount and use.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide such a fixing device which enables a number of accessories to be fixed and released simultaneously to and from a shelf with the aid of a simple handgrip.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide such a fixing device that enables a mother profile or holder profile to be integrated in the fastening device.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide such a fixing device that can be readily manufactured, for example extruded in a single piece.
  • the fixing device is arranged generally outside the channel in the channel element there is obtained a significantly simpler construction than that of earlier known fixing devices that include an open channel for accommodating the engagement parts of respective accessories. Because the channel need only have sufficient space to accommodate the engagement parts of respective accessories, the channel element can be given a much smaller cross-section in a forward direction from the front edge of the shelf than what was earlier possible. This enables the channel element to be formed from a suitable polymer material while still obtaining sufficient torsional stiffness along the full length of the channel element, even in the case of fixing devices of relatively large lengths. Moreover, placement of the fixing element generally outside the channel enables the entire fixing device, including channel element and fixing element, to be produced in one single piece through the medium of a generally simple and inexpensive injection moulding process or an inexpensive extrusion process.
  • the fixing element is conveniently connected to the channel element by means of an axially extending hinge about which the fixing element can be rotated relative to the channel element. This results in an integrated unit which can be readily produced in the absence of subsequent mounting of separate details.
  • the fixing device will conveniently include a profiled section which projects forwardly from the shelf and which is intended for holding further shelf accessories or information carriers and which is connected to the fixing element.
  • a combined fixing device for fixing first shelf accessories such as shelf dividers, pusher devices, trays and the like on top of the shelf and for securing second accessories and/or labels and the like on the front edge of the shelf.
  • This embodiment thus enables a simple extruded element to be combined as an integral part with the fixing device for shelf accessories disposed there above with a mother profile or information carrying strip.
  • the fixing device conveniently includes an abutment part which is comprised of an elastically friction enhancing material for affixing abutment with the shelf accessories received in the channel. This provides more secure fixing of the accessories in the fixing mode of the device and counteracts displacement of the accessories along the shelf.
  • the channel element may include an abutment surface which is intended to engage the abutment part when the fixing device is in its accessory release mode, so as to releasably keep the fixing device in its release mode. This will ensure that the fixing device is kept in its release mode even in the case of a simple fixing device that is comprised of polymer material that has relatively small torsion stiffness along its length.
  • the fixing device will conveniently include a manoeuvring arm on that side of the channel element facing away from the shelf. This enables easy access to the fixing device from in front of the shelves, for adjustment purposes.
  • the manoeuvring arm also produces a lever-arm-effect which facilitates fixing and releasing of accessories, even when many engagement parts are fixed in the channel element with a relatively large tensioning force.
  • abutment part and the manoeuvring arm are each placed on a respective side of the hinge, it is possible to obtain a transmission which amplifies the lever-arm-effect of the manoeuvring arm.
  • the abutment part of the fixing device is preferably disposed outside the channel in order to obtain the simplest possible cross-section construction and manufacture of the integrated fixing device by injection moulding or extrusion of the integrated fixing device. It is also possible, however, to design the fixing device so that the abutment part will be located in the channel when the fixing part of the device is in a fixing and/or releasing mode if so desired.
  • the profiled element will also conveniently include a mounting section which is designed for abutment with the shelf surface so that the channel element will project down beneath the shelf surface, in front of the front edge of the shelf.
  • This enables the fixing device to be readily fitted to a standard shelf, for instance with the aid of double-sided adhesive tape. Moreover, this will enable the fixing device to be placed in a position in which it does not prevent access to the goods on the shelf and which will also allow labels placed on the front profile section of the fixing device to be easily read.
  • Figure 1 shows a front part of a typical store shelf 1 that has an upper shelf surface 1a and a front edge 1b.
  • a system fixing device 2 according to a first embodiment of the invention is fastened to the shelf surface 1 a with the aid of double-sided adhesive tape 3 such that part of the fixing device will project down immediately in front of the front edge 1b of the shelf.
  • Three accessories in the form of two shelf dividers 5 and a pusher device 6, are fixed to the shelf with the aid of the fixing device as is described below in more detail.
  • At least the shelf dividers 5 have to this end a foot that includes an engagement part as described in more detail below with reference to figures 4a-4c .
  • the fixing device 2 illustrated in figures 2, 3a and 3b is comprised of an integrated profiled element which is produced in one piece by the co-extrusion of two different polymer materials.
  • the fixing device 2 can thus be produced very readily and at low cost.
  • the construction provides, at the same time, a high degree of freedom with respect to the design of the fixing device 2, so as to provide an aesthetically attractive construction which will conform to the shelf to which it shall be fastened and to other goods presentations and furnishing details.
  • the extruded profiled element can be cut into lengths that correspond to different standard shelves, for instance in lengths of 600, 900, 1200 and 1330 mm. If the fixating system is applied to shelves of other lengths, the fixing device is simply sawn situ with the aid of a saw or hacksaw. Lengths that differ from standard lengths may also be provided in the manufacturing process.
  • the fixing device 2 includes a channel element 10 and a fixing element 20.
  • the channel element 10 includes a mounting section 11 and a part 12 that projects down from the surface 1a of the shelf.
  • the mounting section 11 is intended to lie in abutment with the shelf surface 1a via the intermediate double-sided adhesive tape 3 ( figure 1 ).
  • the fastening device may, alternatively, be secured to the shelf with the aid of screws or other fasteners with the mounting section lying directly against the shelf surface.
  • the downwardly projecting part 12 has a generally U-shaped cross section comprising a rear leg 12a and a front leg 12b which define an upwardly open channel 13 therebetween.
  • an upper rear flange 14 projects obliquely outwards through a short distance in a forwardly and upwardly direction.
  • An upper front flange 15 projects out rearwardly through a short distance at the upper end of the front leg 12b.
  • An abutment surface 15a is arranged on the upper front flange 15.
  • a rear upper engagement flange 16 and a front lower engagement flange 17 project out in the channel 13 from the rear leg 12a and the front leg 12b respectively in a direction inwards the channel.
  • a first latching flange 18 is provided on the outer surface of the downwardly projecting part 12 slightly in front of the bottom of said downwardly projecting part 12.
  • the fixing element 20 includes an engagement part 21 and a manoeuvring arm 22.
  • the engagement part 21 is comprised of a string of elastic polymer material that has a high coefficient of friction and that has been co-extruded with the polymer material that forms the remainder of the fixing device 2.
  • the manoeuvring arm 22 is formed by a generally J-shaped part 22a and a part 22b that projects out at right angles to the channel element 10.
  • a second latching flange 23 projects out towards the channel element 10 from the lower tip of the J-shaped part 22a.
  • a gripping flange 24 also projects out from the lower part of the J-shaped part 22a in a direction away from the channel element 10.
  • the fixing element 20 is connected to the channel element 10 by means of a hinge 30 that forms an axle which extends along the system and which allows the fixing element 20 to be rotated relative to the channel element 10.
  • the hinge is comprised of a relatively thin bridge of the same material as that from which the channel element 10 and the fixing element 20 are made, with the exception of the deformable element 21.
  • the hinge may alternatively be formed from some other flexible material that is co-extruded with the other materials included in the accessory fixing system.
  • the fixing device also includes a front profiled section 25, 26 which constitutes an engagement profile for securing further accessories, such as label holders or flag holders (not shown).
  • the front profile section includes an upper hook-shaped projection 25 and a lower forwardly arched portion 26 that has a lower rounding whose radius of curvature is smaller than that of the arched portion.
  • the hook-shaped projection 25 and the arched portion 26 extend out from the J-shaped portion 22a of the manoeuvring arm 22 in a direction away from the channel element 10 and are formed integrally as a one-piece structure with the remainder of the fixing device 2.
  • Figures 4a-c illustrates an example of an accessory that is suited for being held by the fixing device according to the invention.
  • the figures show the front portion of a shelf divider 5, although it will be understood that other accessories with a corresponding engagement part 53, that is described further below, are suited for being fixed at shelves which are provided with a fixing device according to the invention.
  • the shelf divider 5 includes a dividing wall 51 and a front plate 52 whose lower part forms an engagement part 53 which is intended to be received by and affixed in the fixing device 2 (see figure 1 ).
  • the engagement part 53 includes a portion that has a given extension parallel with the longitudinal direction of the fastening device below that part of the accessory that is placed on the shelf surface.
  • the engagement part 53 also includes a front surface 54 which is generally vertical, and a lower portion which tapers downwardly into a tip 55 that includes draughts or clearances 55a in the sides of the engagement part 53. Slightly above the bottom tip 55 there extends rearwardly an upper horizontal flange 56 that has a generally constant cross-section over the full width of the engagement part 53. There is provided in the engagement part 53 a rearwardly open aperture 57 of round cross-section beneath the upper flange 56. A beak-like projection 58 extends rearwardly beneath the aperture 57. The beak-like projection 58 includes laterally facing and downwardly facing clearances 58a, 58b in the engagement part 53.
  • FIGs 5a and 5b illustrate how the shelf divider 5 shown in figures 4a-c can be affixed to a shelf (not shown in figures 5a-b ) and released with the aid of a fastening device 2, shown in figures 2-3 .
  • FIG. 5a shows the fixing device in its release mode.
  • the fixing element 20 has herewith been rotated anticlockwise about the hinge 30, wherewith the abutment part 21 has come into abutment with the abutment surface 15a on the channel element 10.
  • the fixing element 20 is kept in its release mode along its full length. This is particularly beneficial since it allows the fixing element 20 to be formed from a material that has a relatively small rigidity and can also be readily caused to take and be retained in a distinct release position so as to enable accessories to be positioned, removed and displaced along the full length of the fastening device 2.
  • This engagement between the engagement flanges 16, 17 of the channel element and the engagement part 53 of the accessory ensures that the accessory will stand relatively firmly on the shelf while, at the same time, enabling the accessory to be easily displaced along the shelf in the longitudinal direction of the fixing device 2.
  • This tension force is obtained by the abutment of the abutment part 21, the upper rear flange 16 and the lower front flange 17 with the corresponding parts 54, 57, 55 on the engagement part.
  • the relatively high coefficient of friction of the abutment part 21 in combination with the tension force with which the abutment part 21 lies against the engagement part 53 also gives rise to a high degree of friction between the abutment part 21 and the engagement part. This counteracts displacement of the accessory in the longitudinal direction of the fixing device in a simple and effective manner when the fixing device is in its accessory fixing mode.
  • the fixing element 20 When the fixing element 20 is turned to its fixing mode, the second latching flange 23 on the fixing element 20 will come into engagement with the first latching flange 18 on the channel element 10. This results in releasable latching of the fixing element 20 in its fixing mode along the full length of the fixing device.
  • the fixing element 20 can then be formed of a material that has a relatively small stiffness and also enables the fixing device to be caused to take and be kept in a distinct fixing position such as to enable accessories to be firmly affixed along the full length of the fixing device 2.
  • Accessories can be plucked from the shelf by rotating the fixing element counter clockwise back to the release position shown in figure 5a .
  • the accessories 5 can then be readily plucked from the fixing device 2, by rotating the accessories slightly about a horizontal axis at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the fixing device.
  • the clearances 58a, 58b (see figure 4a ) on the beak-like projection 58 and the downwardly narrowing tip herewith enables the engagement part 53 to be turned out of its relatively loose engagement with the engagement flanges 15, 16 of the channel element 10.
  • the described adjustments of the fixing device 2 between its accessory release and accessory fixing modes can be made readily by gripping the gripping flange 24 on the manoeuvring arm 22 of the fixing element 20. Because the distance of the gripping flange 24 to the hinge 30 is substantially greater than the distance of the abutment part 21 to the hinge 30, there is obtained a transmission which enables the fixing element to be moved to and from its fixing mode with a relatively small finger force, even when the abutment part 21 lies against the engagement part 53 with a high abutment force when in its fixing mode.
  • the embodiment of the fixing device shown in figures 1-3b , 5a and 5b includes an integrated front profile section 25, 26 which constitutes a so-called mother profile.
  • This mother profile can be used for securing, for instance, label holders such as label pockets and flag holders.
  • the fixing device thus constitutes an integrated single-piece structure which, in addition to fixing to the shelf such accessories as shelf dividers, trays and pusher devices also other accessories, such as label holders and flag holders placed appropriately along the front edge of the shelf so as to be easily seen.
  • the embodiment of the fixing device 2' shown in figure 6 and 7 is identical with the embodiment described above with the exception of the front profiled section.
  • the front profiled section instead comprises a transparent label pocket 27 which is fastened to the manoeuvring arm 22' of the fixing element 20' by means of a hinge forming bridge of material 28, and by a supportive flange 29 which projects out forwardly from the manoeuvring arm 22', below the hinge 28.
  • This embodiment enables, for instance, price labels (not shown) to be placed at selective positions along the front edge of the shelf, by inserting said labels into the pocket 27.
  • the supportive flange 29 ensures that label pockets 27 will be held, under the influence of gravity, at an appropriate angle for optimal reading of the labels.
  • the hinge 28 enables the label pocket 27 to be turned up from its rest position shown in figure 6 as indicated by the double-headed arrow A in figure 6 . This enables the gripping flange 22' to be readily reached when wishing to adjust the fixing device 2' between its accessory and accessory fixing modes.
  • the fixing device may be adapted so that a part thereof, suitably the abutment part can project fully or partially into the channel, either in a release mode, a fixing mode or in both of said modes.
  • a substantial part of the fixing device, such as the manoeuvring arm and the front profiled section is, in this case, disposed outside the channel so as to provide a simple and reliable construction that can be produced in a simple and inexpensive fashion and simple use.
